Just surfing the net and I stumbled on this. Not sure if this program has reached the Philippines yet. Any news about it locally?
================================================
The mission of the One Laptop per Child association is to develop a low-cost laptop—the “XO Laptop”—to revolutionize how we educate the world’s children. Our goal is to provide children around the world with new opportunities to explore, experiment, and express themselves. Why do children in developing nations need laptops? Laptops are a window and a tool: a window into the world and a tool with which to think. They are a wonderful way for all children to learn learning through independent interaction and exploration.
One Laptop per Child is a project about the transformation of education. It’s about giving children who don’t have the opportunity for learning that opportunity. So it’s about access, it’s about equity, and it’s about giving the next generation of children in the developing world a bright and open future.
